Feeding Instructions: Feed ABBA 2200 to Small Hookbills two or three times a week, preferably in a deep dish. If ABBA 2200 is supplied properly to the birds, they will consume it with little or no waste. Do not mix ABBA 2200 with any other dry seed.

They eat seed in the milky stage, seeds that have fallen on the ground and partially sprouted by moisture, plus vegetation, and a variety of fruits, as well as insects, gathering all they need in vitamins and minerals to remain in good health and reproduce themselves successfully.
